Three Unique EDH Gimmick Decks 

Good Idea! I've just added complete deck lists for the three decks in the description of the video. Enjoy!

I built the deck to be monoblue as a challenge to myself. It definetly would be stronger with an additional color, and I actually built a blue white version before this but felt like it was TOO consistent. The mindset behind choosing Inga as the commander was that this deck finds it fairly easy to protect your creatures from targeted removal after you cast a bunch of auras in blue, because a lot of them give hexproof, ward, shroud, phasing, totem armor and more. I noticed that the deck was vulnerable to boardwipes however, because they often get around the aura protection for my creature, and then my hand would be empty because I committed all the auras already. Inga doesn't add to the strength of the deck, but she helps to cover the weakness, which is having no cards in hand after a boardwipe. Plus, I love an underdog, and Inga is notoriously awkward to build a deck around. She worked here so I ran with it. Thank you for your kind words!

@@StragetyMTG Awesome. I definitely respect challenges and don't love "optimizing" your deck, just wanted to know the reasoning behind Inga. And you're right - she's notoriously awkward to build around. Haha. Thanks for taking the time make the video, and for your robust reply! As a sign of appreciation, I'll tell you about a janky combo that I have in my Noyan Dar deck - He animates Contested War Zone, and then casts Mirrorweave; turning all creatures into Contested War Zones (Which AREN'T creatures because modifications don't get copied, I'm sure you already know through your Inga deck experience. Haha) Anyway, then you just hit each opponent with your creature-land(s), take all their "contested war zones", and at end of turn they turn back into creatures! 😁 Once again, love the super janky deck ideas. Make sure to share more if you make any.

@@Belena711 Wow! One of my video ideas I was working on was cards that I wish I could figure out how to build around, and Contested War Zone was on the list! I was struggling to figure out how to turn my opponents lands into copies of it. It's awesome that you made it work! My play group's never going to see it coming 😁

Fuse as an ability only applies when casting the spell from your hand, so Jadzi wouldn't let you cast a spell for it's fuse cost off the top. You would have to choose one side or the other. There have actually been more split spells printed since I made this video, so I'm sure the deck could be much more consistent than it is now.

I forgot to mention you would also replace polymorph with Reality Scramble, it makes the deck able to recover much more reliably.

@@StragetyMTG Okay cool thanks, I'll give it a shot!
